Study on the characteristics of climate change in Changbai Mountain National Natural Reserve from 1958 to 2017

Climate change is an important factor affecting the ecological environment of regions, and the local climate is closely related to the ecological environment. Taking the Changbai Mountain National Natural Reserve as an example, the regional climate change was studied by analyzing the data from the years 1953–2017. It is found that the temperature of Changbai Mountain is on the rise; the maximum monthly mean temperature difference is approximately 35 °C and the annual mean temperature is 2–5 °C. The monthly mean wind speed in this area has a wavy distribution and obvious seasonal variation. The correlation analysis shows that the correlation coefficient of the monthly mean value of cumulative photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and total solar radiation (TSR), cumulative evaporation and cumulative PAR, cumulative evaporation and TSR, temperature and cumulative PAR, and temperature and cumulative evaporation were more than 0.9, indicating a significant correlation. The annual cumulative precipitation in this area is between 600 and 1000 mm, the annual cumulative evaporation is between 1000 and 1500 mm, the annual cumulative PAR is between 6000 and 10,000 mol m −2 s −1 , and the annual TSR is between 4000 and 6000 MJ m −2 . The annual cumulative precipitation, annual cumulative evaporation, annual mean wind speed, annual cumulative PAR, and annual TSR show a downward trend. The climate change in this area will not have a greater negative impact on the forest, but it still needs to pay close attention to the further climate change.
